What I'm looking for

I seek a sales role where I can drive outbound lead generation, qualify high-volume pipelines, use CRMs effectively, and collaborate cross-functionally to meet targets and grow client relationships.

I am a sales-driven professional with extensive experience across financial services, insurance, IT, and real estate, focused on outbound sales, customer retention, and relationship management.

I qualify and nurture high-volume lead pipelines, executing targeted outreach—making 60–70 calls daily and managing 80+ qualified leads for email marketing and conversion.

I leverage CRM platforms including Salesforce, HubSpot, Microsoft Dynamics, Pipedrive, Freshsales and ZohoDesk, and deliver consistent appointment-setting results, often converting 50%+ of inbound calls and maintaining disciplined reporting.

I collaborate cross-functionally to ensure smooth handoffs, run virtual demos and presentations, and align sales activities with strategic business objectives to meet targets and cultivate long-term client relationships.
